Verdict

Foxy Music has bags of early pace but has a tricky draw and is likely to be hampered by her welter burden. Imperial Legend should go well on the back of a second at Musselburgh but former stablemate Fol Hollow appears to be going backwards and neither Elusive Bonus nor Diamond Blue have shown a great deal this year. ANOTHER CITIZEN has climbed the weights since just getting up over course and distance last month but hasn't been disgraced in a couple of subsequent starts and appears to get on well with apprentice Gary Mahon. He gets the nod ahead of the consistent Phoenix Clubs and Catterick third Ypres.
